  • Publication number: 20230247178
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a method and apparatus, a terminal and a medium. The method includes the following steps. A target terminal displays, in a video session, a video session interface including an image display region for displaying images associated with one or more users participating in the video session. The target terminal displays a target virtual image of a user of the target terminal in the image display region. The target terminal acquires movement information of the user and controls the target virtual image displayed in the image display region to perform a target interaction action corresponding to the movement information of the user. Finally, the target terminal transmits movement data of the target virtual image performing the target interaction action, to terminals of the other users of the video session to render the target virtual image to perform the target interaction action on the corresponding terminals.
